Helena’s Top Ten Albums of ALL TIME

This list changes at least twice a day, and I really can’t place them in any particular order. But – each of these albums have touched me in a way that can’t be described. That’s why they’re on the list.

1. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot – Wilco (2002, Nonesuch)
2. American Beauty – The Grateful Dead (1970, Warner Bros.)
3. Portrait In Jazz – Bill Evans Trio (1959, OJC)
4. The Modern Lovers – The Modern Lovers (1976, Castle)
5. Dirty – Sonic Youth (Geffen, 1992)
6. OK Computer – Radiohead (1997, Capitol)
7. In The Aeroplane Over The Sea – Neutral Milk Hotel (1998, Merge)
8. Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain – Pavement (1994, Matador)
9. Bee Thousand – Guided By Voices (1994, Scat)
10. Pinkerton – Weezer (1996, Geffen)

I really have enough for a top 20, but I have to restrain myself.
